      matthias s The Butterfly Effect 3 is an abysmal mess of a movie that fails to capture any of the intrigue and excitement of the original film. The plot is riddled with holes that only serve to make the story confusing and frustrating to follow, while the dialogue is so messy and poorly written that it's hard to care about any of the characters. The most glaring issue with this film is the numerous plot holes that are present throughout. Characters are introduced and then quickly forgotten, events happen for seemingly no reason, and the rules of time travel that were established in the first film are completely ignored. It's hard to get invested in a story when it feels like the filmmakers themselves don't know what's going on. But even if the plot had been tighter and more cohesive, the dialogue would still be a major issue. Every line is either cheesy or stilted, making it difficult for the actors to deliver anything resembling a convincing performance. The characters themselves are also poorly written, with no real motivations or personalities beyond the most basic stereotypes. All in all, The Butterfly Effect 3 is a movie that is best avoided. The plot holes and messy dialogue make it a frustrating experience to watch, and the lack of any real depth or nuance makes it hard to care about anything that happens on screen. Save yourself the trouble and watch something else instead. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/09/23 Full Review The H well, they tried hard Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/04/23 Full Review Georgan G Was happily surprised by the decent story line and acting. I almost always enjoys time travel so gave this a try. It's certainly had an ending I didn't expect until most of the way through. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/04/23 Full Review Audience Member The 3rd in a non-cohesive series, Carmack takes this installment in a new direction where he's trying to hunt down a killer instead of avoid disaster. This butterfly comes with a smidge more gore, too. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member It's not the worst film I've ever seen but I preferred the previous two films. There are so many problems with the logic in this particular film that made it hard to watch. It's short and has a good pace so it is watchable, as long as you don't think too much. It's pretty predictable too. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member violence is just too much.its better than the second movie though.
